Scruffy is in the Animal Hospital on a IV.
All the other Dogs & Pups are all Fine sofar.
They think it is intestinal, Pancreatitis...
They took blood this morning to check Liver, Pancreas & Kidneys & CBC.
They won't get the results till tomorrow.
I called at 1pm them said his is doing OK.
I can pick him up this afternoon, But I have to bring him back in the Morning for more IV.

He started acting really tired & weak yesterday afternoon.
Hadn't eated since yesterday morning.
Diareah, vomiting alot of yellow Slimmy fluid, Moaning, very weak & his
tongue was a faded light pink color. He said he was not Lathargic because he
fought with him when he was examining him.

I had been feeding Lexi (Nursing mother) soft food mixed with Kibble & cottage Cheese. Feeding Stormy (8wk old) soft food & kibble soften in water.
Kylee & Scruffy had been begging for Lexi & Stormys food. So I started feeding the same mixture Lexi has since the weekend.
OH - I usually feed them all Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lovers Soul kibble, but the breeder I got Stormy from feeds Pro Plan Puppy & Pedigree canned. I didn't like the ingredients in either, So i picked up some canned Wellness Puppy. So I tried for a little over a week. Wellness canned since Monday night.
He has always had a weak stomach. Maybe I did this to him.
Picked up another bag of Chicken Soup & threw out the other stuff (ProPlan, canned Pedigree & canned Wellness.
From now on - The 8 week old gets softened kibble & the adults are getting hard kibble only!!!
I have been wanting to try Canidae All life Stages, Innova & Merricks Kibbles.
We do not have any dealers around here to get samples from. I emailed the companies Tuesday for samples - don't know if they will send them.
Please Keep my Baby Boy in your Prayers!!!

Oh no !! We have so many having surgery or sick lately I said a prayer for Scruffy poor baby ...I hope he gets to feeling better soon - and you can find something he'll eat. With the food recalls it's just insane

Prayers for little Scruffy. I hope it's not serious and he starts feeling better soon. From all I read, some pups have finicky tummies. I'm lucky both of my pups have cast iron stomachs. But I am still careful with what I feed them. Get better soon, Scruffy.

I just picked up Scruffy from the Vet.
He is sleeping in my arms right now.
So sad to see him so sick & weak.
It just breaks my Heart to watch him suffer.
When the nurse went to get him out of the cage, he rolled over for a tummy rub. Maybe a tiny bit better than when i dropped him off.
He is about the same, can't feed him, can't drink water till 10pm.
We have to go back in the morning for blood test results & more IV.

Does any of you have a petstore in your area with Samples bags available?
I can send you shipping money.
I emailed the companies - No telling if they will send my samples anytime soon.
